Look what I can do!

Little Miss has been holding her head up really well since she was born but here lately she's really gotten stronger when lying on her belly. And, not to brag or anything, but she totally rolled over from belly to back on Friday night. I'm sure it was a fluke, but it made me so proud! :) Slow down on the growing Caroline!

Baby Blake Griffin

I apologize for the number of times you hear the words basket and sister...they might possibly be Sarah's next words!

Sisters

Sarah loves Caroline! C is the only person that Sarah will give kisses to 100% of the time when asked. It's so sweet! Now, if we could only get SJ to realize that C is not a toy...
Caroline, however, just takes it in stride. What else can you do when you're stuck in one spot? It's so true that babies are a lot more resilient than (or is it then?) we give them credit for! Love my girls!

Checkups

Caroline and Sarah both had shots yesterday at their 2 and 15 month checkups. Daniel had work obligations so I called in my backup, Auntie Salle! Thanks so much for your help, Salle, I could not have gotten through that appointment by myself!

Sarah was AMAZING during her two shots. She didn't cry at all. Not one tear. Tough little girl! Caroline was pretty awesome too. She cried, of course, but after about a minute she decided it wasn't that bad and never made another peep. There was another two month old, who had just received shots, checking out when we left the doctor and that poor little thing cried the whole time. Made me proud of my tough little girls, though! :)

Sarah's Stats:
Height: 30.25 inches (90th percentile)
Weight: 24 lb 5 oz (75th percentile)
Caroline's Stats:
Height: 22.25 inches (75th percentile)
Weight: 11 lb 11 oz (75th percentile)

Two Months

Today is Miss Caroline's two month birthday! She gets her first set of shots tomorrow, boo! Here are some fun things C is doing these days:
-Eats 6 times a day (7:30, 10:30, 1:30, 4:30, 7:30 and 10:30...I LOVE this schedule!)
-Naps about 3 times a day for about 1.5 hours each.
-Smiles!!! I love when babies learn to smile!
-Goes to bed around 8 PM (I wake her up to feed her one more time around 10:30) and wakes up around 7:30 AM. She likes to wake up sometime between 3 AM and 5 AM but if I give her the paci she goes right back to sleep...not too shabby!
-Has started cooing and making the sweetest noises. It's so fun to hear her "talk".

We are so thankful to have Caroline in this family. Life sure is different (but in a good way!) with a second child but the future is going to be so much FUN! We love you sweet Caroline!

Weekend In Pictures

Lovin' these smiles!

Just enjoying a lime while sittin' in a bucket of water...
What? This isn't how you cool off on a hot summer day? Welcome to Oklahoma!

Surprise visit by Grammy and Papa on Sunday!


Wish I had gotten more pictures with Cmom, Aunt Betsy and Grandfather!

15 Months

It's much harder to get a good shot of a 15 month old sitting next to her doll. Actually, I would say impossible. Anyway, here is the best I could get...



Fun things SJ is doing these days:
-She is a walker...has been since about 12.5 months old. (Not sure if I've updated since then.)
- Loves to pretend! It's adorable. She talks on the phone, takes drinks, takes bites, anything that you show her, she'll sort of attempt.
-Learned how to raise the roof this week, ha!
-Says, "hi" and "da" (either da da or what's that), and babbles non-stop.
-Refuses to say "mama". She actually will blow raspberries when I tell her to say it. Stinker!
-Loves her sister! She will kiss or pat her anytime she is within reach. Actually, today she climbed on TOP of Caroline while Caroline was in the bouncy seat. Needless to say, C did NOT appreciate it! (I totally would have taken a pic if C wouldn't have been screaming!)
-Climbs on everything! She can climb onto the chair with the ottoman in our living room and is super proud of herself when she is up there. Actually, I came in her room yesterday and found her like this...she's a little monkey!
